Quantum Spin-5/2 Blume-Capel Model in a Random Transverse-Crystalline Field Anisotropy (opens in new tab)

In this work, we investigate the thermodynamic properties of the quantum Blume-Capel model with spin \( S = 5/2 \) in the presence of transverse and random crystalline fields. The system is described by a Hamiltonian that includes ferromagnetic exchange interactions between nearest neighbors, a longitudinal single-ion anisotropy, and a transverse single-ion anisotropy. Using a mean-field approach based on Bogoliubov's inequality for the Gibbs fr...
